On Nov. 19, 2022, Colorado Springs resident Wyatt Kent celebrated their birthday by performing drag at a local LGBTQ+ bar called Club Q. The dolled-up performer, stage name Potted Plant, did an energetic number to a Dean & the Weenies song before the venue, filled with friends and chosen family, sang “Happy Birthday” and the newly 23-year-old blew out candles on a cake. There was dancing, there were bottomless drinks.
